About This Home

As of December 2015

Presiding over this lovely parcel, directly across from Lake Carnegie, is an expanded farmhouse that dates back to the 19th century. Having been home to some of Princeton's more prominent residents, if these walls could talk the tales they could tell would be something for the history books! A character filled dwelling with solid bones and welcome updates including 3-zone central air & newer furnace. This gracious six bedroom residence offers a flexible floor plan that includes a separate 2-bedroom apartment ideal for guests or in-laws, a large separate garage with great finished upstairs space and a sprawling backyard filled with handsome specimen trees and perennials.
